Wraith on wraith

Hello and welcome to anoth narative battle report. My somewhat cobled togeth eldar wraith vs the a necron wraith army.

The craftworld had moved quick there anciant enamy had emerged again. They had come to finish a war started back in time imemorable. Antiant webways burst into life as far see tal'di sped out leeding a squad of the craftworlds wind riders, dehind them raced 3 wave serpents carry all to important wraithguard. The craftworld been unable to spare many of its aspect warriors or guardian deffenders and as such had been forced to awaken the souls of long the long dead.
Backing up the small force where a pair of towering wraith knights that had webwayed into to combat whilst on rout to another conflict. Tal'di new the necron well he had faced them many a time defore and had studdied the text of old. He knew the necron force would be there front link deffence systems mindless canoptek machines led by simple lords awakend to guide the force, he would strike quick and he would strike true, he would not allow the necron to awaken any turther.

Speeding towards the closest unit of wraith, tal'di reached out into the warp to scry the conveluted paths of the future finding the path thqt suited him well her began istracting his wind riders where to shoot. Every shot stuck true damaging the canoptek wraith as if the eldar knew exactly where there enamies week points would be at that exact moment. There alpha stike sucsesfull the jetbikes begant to pull back pursed by the now weekend wraith ,the air shimmered as laser rounds danced through it the decestating fire power of the wave serpents and wrsith knight finished the wraiths allowing Tal'di to make a clean get away.

Tal'di had his judged his enamy, the necron defence system wad being led by 2 destroyer lords, 1 of them lead his squad quickly after the retreating far seer
They perduded there prey relentlessly and managed to catch 1 of the jetbikes shredding the rider to pices with there cold claws. The lord as relentless as he was had not noticed how far out of formation he was, within short reach of the eldar and surrounded on 3 sides the lord was helpless to stop the wraith wrath.

With little prompting as if in some dreamfilled burst of sight the wraithguard had moved to intercept the enamy canoptek wraith. Fogoing there protective transport they marched forward bringing there terable distortion weponry to bear the combined power was to much even for the wraiths shielding and even the lords regeneation thay where taken out of existance in the blink of an eye.

All across the eldar front lines canopteck wraith charged into the silent forms of the wraithguard. There solid forms took the charge with only one of there number killed in the charge. Tal'di and 1 of the wraithknights jummped round the back of the fighting qraith line to attack the exposed necron tanks positioning away from the main battle.
As the necron wraith cut apart the last og the initial wraithguard squad another two turned there guns against them and fired there power still proveing too much for the necron wraith.

Even with the arival of necron warrior reenforcements the wraithguard had wone the battle and althought there wraithbone forms had been damged and scared they themselves where safe. Tal'di gad taken a hit from a stray telsa bolt and his jetbike squad were reduced in number the escaped largly unharmed.

They had wone the battle and destoyed this tomb but who knew how many more would be found on thia world he was growing uneasy the future was clouding ahead of him, the paths once clwar and easy to walk where twisting and crossing, if he listened he could hear a faint chatering and in moments where his eyes closed and the stopped consentrating he saw a great maw oppening before him...
